Item 1- Description of Business
- -------------------------------
(a) General Development of Business
-------------------------------
Megatech Corporation (Megatech or the Company) was established in
1970 and is engaged in the production and sale of educational training
programs and equipment in the energy power and transportation areas sold
domestically and internationally to educational institutions and government
agencies.
Megatech manufactures educational training equipment which consist of
modular technology workstations which are designed to provide students with
hands-on experience working with various technologies such as: automotive,
environmental, fiber-optic, microwave, laser, alternate energies,
electronic, personal computer kits and multi-media. In conjunction with the
educational equipment, Megatech produces over 200 video training programs
and student manuals which enable students to follow a self-paced self-
guided program to learn the technologies described above.
The Company competes with a number of major suppliers of school
training equipment and several small single product line companies through
the uniqueness of its products, and the quality of its training programs.
Most of the sales to states, cities, towns and school districts are the
results of having submitted sealed bids and having been awarded the sale
based on being the lowest bidder, directly or through independent sales rep
organizations.
There was one customer which accounted for 36%, 28% and 20% of total
sales for the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997. No other
customers accounted for more than 10% of sales in each of the years ended
December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997.

Item 7 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
- --------------------------------------------------------------------
and Results of Operation
------------------------
1999 Compared with 1998
Sales for 1999 decreased from the corresponding period of 1998 by $
0.05 million or 3%, to $1.8 million. This decrease was primarily due to a
decrease in international sales. Domestic sales in 1999 were $ 1.1 million
or 61% of total sales, compared to $ 1 million or 54% of total sales in
1998. International sales in 1999 were $0.7 million or 39% of total sales,
compared to $ 0.8 million or 46% of total sales in 1998.
Gross profit for 1999 increased from the corresponding period of 1998
by $0.04 million, or 5%, to $0.8 million. As a percentage of total sales,
gross profit increased to 42% in 1999 compared to 39% in 1998. Currently,
there are no known future increases in costs of materials, labor or other
price increases which could have an effect on sales other than normal
inflation increases.
Selling and marketing expenses for 1999 decreased from the
corresponding period of 1998 by approximately $ 0.06 million or 9% to $ 0.6
million. As a percentage of total sales, selling and marketing expenses
decreased to 32% for 1999 compared to 34% for 1998. The decrease is
primarily due to a decrease in commissions paid to sales reps.
General and administrative expenses for 1999 remained steady at $.16
million and 9% of sales in 1999 and 1998.
Research and development expenses for 1999 remained steady at $.02
million and 1% of sales in 1999 and 1998.
Income from operations for 1999 as compared to the same period of
1998 increased by $ .10 million. As a percentage of total sales, operating
income increased to .11% for 1999 compared to operating losses of 5.4% in
1998. The operating income in 1999 are a result of the factors indicated
above.
1998 Compared with 1997
-----------------------
Sales for 1998 decreased from the corresponding period of 1997 by $
0.25 million or 12%, to $1.8 million. This decrease was primarily due to a
decrease in overall sales volume. Domestic sales in 1998 were $ 1 million
or 54% of total sales, compared to $ 1.4 million or 67% of total sales in
1997. International sales in 1998 were $0.8 million or 46% of total sales,
compared to $ 0.7 million or 33% of total sales in 1997. The Company
believes that the decrease in overall sales is due to declining domestic
sales.
Gross profit for 1998 decreased from the corresponding period of 1997
by $0.15 million, or 17%, to $0.7 million. As a percentage of total sales,
gross profit was 39% and 41% for 1998 and 1997, respectively. Currently,
there are no known future increases in costs of materials, labor or other
price increases which could have an effect on sales other than normal
inflation increases.
Selling and marketing expenses for 1998 decreased from the
corresponding period of 1997 by approximately $ 0.2 million or 22% to $ 0.6
million. As a percentage of total sales, selling and marketing expenses
decreased to 34% for 1998 compared to 38% for 1997. The decrease is
primarily due to changes in marketing staff.
General and administrative expenses for 1998 decreased from the
corresponding period of 1997 by $.01 million, or 7% to $0.17 million. The
decrease in G & A expenses is the result of changes in office staff. As a
percentage of total sales, G & A expenses increased to 9.1% in 1998
compared to 8.7% in 1997.
Research and development expenses for 1998 remained relatively steady
in comparison to 1997 at $ .02 million. As a percentage of total sales, R
& D expenses also remained steady at 1.0% of sales in 1998 and 1997.
Loss from operations for 1998 as compared to the same period of 1997
decreased by $ .03 million. As a percentage of total sales, operating
losses decreased to 5.4% for 1998 compared to 6.2% for 1997. The operating
losses are a result of the factors indicated above.
Liquidity and capital resources
-------------------------------
Working capital at December 31, 1999 was $376,983 as compared to
$330,476 in working capital at December 31, 1998. The increase was
attributable to the net income for the year ended December 31, 1999 as well
borrowings from long term debt.
The Company maintains a $ 100,000 line-of-credit agreement with a
bank. The line is collateralized by a security interest in substantially
all assets of the Company. Interest is payable monthly at the bank's prime
rate plus 1.5%. There were no borrowings outstanding on this line at
December 31, 1999.
Long term debt of $37,500 at December 31, 1999 consists of 8%
convertible notes payable. There are no other notes payable outstanding at
December 31, 1999.
Capital expenditures totaled approximately $16,000 in 1999 and $7,000
in 1998. No material purchase or capital commitments exist at December 31,
1999.
The Company believes that cash generated from operations, together
with the existing sources of debt financing, will be sufficient to meet
foreseeable cash requirements through 2000.

MEGATECH CORPORATION
====================
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 1999, 1998 AND 1997
--------------------
1. OPERATIONS
Megatech Corporation is engaged in the production and sale of
educational training programs in the energy, power and
transportation areas which are sold domestically and internationally
to educational institutions and government agencies. Inherent in the
line of business in which the Company is engaged, is the risk of
product line obsolescence due to technological advances. There also
exists the risk that certain customers, such as governmental
agencies, which are funded by tax revenues, may be subject to budget
reductions. The Company grants credit to its customers.
Approximately 39%, 46% and 33% of sales during the years ended
December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively, were from
international sales.
There was one customer that accounted for 36%, 28% and 20% of sales
for the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.
No other customers accounted for more than 10% of sales in each of
the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Use of Estimates
----------------
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at
the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of
revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results
could differ from those estimates.
Revenue Recognition
-------------------
Revenue from product sales are recognized upon shipment. Revenue for
maintenance and service and other revenues are recognized as the
services are performed.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
-------------------------
For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents
include cash and all highly liquid investments with original
maturities of three months or less.
Inventories
-----------
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost (first-in-first-out
method) or market.
Property and Equipment
----------------------
Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation and
amortization are computed principally on the straight-line method
for financial accounting purposes, and accelerated methods for tax
purposes, over the estimated useful lives of the assets.
Leasehold improvements are amortized on the straight-line method over
their respective lives or the lease terms, whichever is shorter.
Costs of maintenance and repairs are charged to expense while costs of
significant renewals and betterments are capitalized.
Income Taxes
------------
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future
tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial
statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and
their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit
carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured
using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the
years in which those temporary differences are expected to be
recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and
liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the
period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is
used to reduce deferred tax assets when it is "more likely than not"
that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be
realized.

consecutive trading days, the notes are convertible at the option of
the Company into shares of the Company's common stock at a
conversion rate of $1 per share.

for all video production and video cassette reproduction. The
videotapes are exclusively marketed by the Company. The Company
provides scripts for the modules, technical representatives, program
materials and is also responsible for packaging, design and

and $2,400, respectively.
11. NET INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE
Basic net income (loss) per share has been computed using the weighted
average number of common shares outstanding.
Diluted net income (loss) per share gives effect to all dilutive
potential common shares that were outstanding during the period.
None of the convertible debt or options outstanding at period end
were included in the diluted net income (loss) per share calculation
for the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997, since they
were anti-dilutive.
The weighted average number of shares outstanding is as follows:
Year Ended Number of
